IBM didn’t “fall”. Just because they don’t make phones and pop culture shit anymore doesn’t mean that International Business Machines are going anywhere soon.
How many companies do you know that make a multitude of processor architectures and a multitude of super computer architectures?
IBM probably has a black site nuclear bomb research lab aimed straight at their competition too
I actually work in the field and all of our architectures are made in-house. I honestly don’t know what influence IBM has on any industry other than making annoying commercials in my podcasts and talking about the cloud.
They still make a shitload of mainframes, some part because of backwards compatibility and some parts because ain’t nobody got fired for buying IBM, y’know y’know

when I worked at IBM my manager loved to quote that - and he didnt like me throwing it back in face when IBM offshored my job to India.
Read some Cringely. IBM is at a tipping point and needs to stop processing acquisitions while it has some momentum left.
